Please Help: Laid Off after 180 days

EADHolder

New Member
LC, I140, I485 filed by: CompanyA
Application filed: Nebraska
I 485 was filed: May, 2002
Extended EAD expiration: April, 2004
Laid Off from CompanyA: October, 2003
H1b expired: October, 2003

1. What is my current status?

2. Currently, I am getting an offer to start a new job on 20th November. What requirements (in below areas) need to be fulfilled for an easy Green Card processing? And How?
a. Salary
b. Job Title
c. Job Description
d. Location
e. New Employer’s Location, State of Filing

2. What is the remaining procedure if everything is as expected? When should I expect my inquiry?

3. I will have gap in employment for a month and half. Will this make any issue in receiving the green card?

4. My wife’s papers( I485 & EAD) were filed with my processing together in May 2002. She got a job a year back using her EAD. Will it affect her status, if I change my job?

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks in advance,
An EAD Holder
